| Summary |
"The book about the power of sprouts as an ultra-food for health, weight loss, and optimum nutrition by Doug Evans, the co-founder of Organic Avenue and the founder of Juicero The Sprout Book is a transformative plan to empower readers to embark on a plant-based way of eating that's low-cost and accessible. It introduces sprouts, one of the most nutritious sustainable foods on earth, by adding a few dishes to a diet and then shifting into a raw, whole foods plant-based diet. Among the mind-blowing nutritional qualities of sprouts: - they have 20-30 times the nutrients of other vegetables and 100 times those of meat - they are cancer-fighting and help to protect us from cardiovascular disease and pollutants in the environment - they help with digestion - they are a healthier alternative to juice cleansing, and will leave consumers with more energy and fuller stomachs for fewer calories, sugars, and carbs The forty recipes contain at least 50% sprouts on top of raw vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, spices, medicinal mushrooms, sea vegetables, and top-quality cold-pressed vegetable oils. After ten days of sprouting, a reader will lose weight, gain energy, reduce inflammation, sleep better, become more regular, and think more clearly"-- Provided by publisher. |
